Adverb in English

It mixed for many people to use adverb and adjective but the difference between them is great, it's simply that the adjective describe the nouns but adverb can describe ( the verb – the adjective – the sentence as whole ) and we'll show this more in the example :

✔ The naughty boy runs quickly → (adverb ) .

Describe the verb

✔ The naughty → ( adjective ) boy runs.

Describe the noun ( boy )

In this way, we have explained the difference between the use of the adjective and the use of the adverb. We will complete the rest of the lesson to learn more about the adverb and its forms and uses in the English.

Cases of the use ( adverb ):

Adverb describe adverb	Adverb describe the adjective	Adverb describe the verb
In many cases adverb comes into adverb and that's so strengthen the meaning . For example : They run extremely Rapidly	In many cases adverb can describe the adjective to give us more information about the adjective For example : -She is always nervous with her kids	In this case adverb describe the verb as in the example : -Samir signs quietly . -He talks to his father loudly .

-We need to know too that adverb can describe the sentence as whole and it's not just necessary that adverb describe the adjective or verb .

- There are some words that usually come in the sentence as ( adverb ) for example : ( often – always – never – very )

✔ This car is very expensive .

How to turn adjectives in to adverb ?

1-Adding (ly ) at the end of the adjective .

For example :

✔ My brother walks slowly to the club .

2-There is a set of adjectives that don't accept adding ( ly ) and keep the same shape .

For example :

The deer running fast .

3-There are some adjectives whose shape change completely when it turns into adverb .

For example :

✔ Sandy is good→ ( adjective ) soccer player .

✔ He plays well→ ( adverb ) .

How to add ( ly ) to the adjective ?

-If the adjective ends with (le ) we drop (e ) and put ( y ) .

For example :

Possible → possibly

-If the adjective ends with ( y ) we turn it to (I ) .

For example :

Hungry → Hungrily

-If the last letter ( vowel ), it's okay to add ( ly ) in the end .

Active →actively
